German Christmas Ornament: Vintage Arch Salt Miners

1800

The salt miner is an iconic image in German Christmas decorations, sometimes depicted with angels. Here, two miners playing musical instruments herald in your Christmas. Handmade from wood and painted by artisans in Germany's Erzgebirge Mountains. Stands just almost 3" tall. The strip of wood that surrounds the miners is thin veneer and very often not a perfect circle. This is one of our vintage Erzgebirge ornaments, made in the Expertic days of the German Democratic Republic. Very limited stock.
